Chapter 5 - 2: Public Restroom Encounter_2

Chapter 5: Chapter 2: Public Restroom Encounter_2Brother, you should know that a pretty girl definitely won’t peek into a man’s crotch... Several male passengers couldn’t help but give Lin Mu a thumbs-up from behind! Nothing more to say, this guy is just one word, awesome! Suddenly, Qi Manlin stood up because she heard her teammate’s voice through her earpiece. She quickly wiped away her tears, stood up, and glared fiercely at the scoundrel. People around them already knew this guy had taken advantage of the girl during the chaos, so they all shot disdainful and scornful looks at Lin Mu. If looks could kill, Lin Mu would have been dead dozens of times by now! Lin Mu quickly zipped up his pants and dashed off. Qi Manlin looked into the empty restroom and saw nothing unusual, so she continued to tail Lin Mu. Hmph, you’d better take more painkillers first, if I catch you later, I’ll beat you so hard your parents won’t recognize you! Actually, Lin Mu didn’t tell her that he lost his parents at a young age, and there’s probably no one in this world who can beat him to that extent! The two of them walked one in front of the other, with Lin Mu leading and Qi Manlin following, her face as dark as stormy clouds, not saying a word, and Lin Mu sensibly stopped making any small talk. Glancing down at his watch, it was past two-thirty, less than half an hour from the time in the dream when the crime occurred. Hmm, still time, no rush, observe the situation first, then act. Once again, he scanned the surrounding passengers and indeed found the situation strikingly similar to his dream. The beautiful girl who got shot sat three meters to the right, regal and elegant. Despite being partially covered, her extraordinary beauty couldn’t be hidden. In front of and around her were four bodyguards, indicating she was no ordinary person. Sitting around the beauty were a few rough-looking men with stubbly beards. An ordinary person might not notice anything, but Lin Mu, a fellow with countless kills, couldn’t be fooled. The killing intent in their eyes clearly indicated they were men with blood on their hands. Brother, they even kept the same beard style as mine. No wonder that busty beauty mistook me for a bad guy despite being a model youth. But the next moment, something even more unexpected happened. He saw that in Lin Mu’s seat, there was now another burly man sitting—around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, stout and muscular, weighing at least 250 pounds, who was now glaring at Lin Mu. Of course, Qi Manlin knew that this was Wancheng Police Station’s Deputy Captain, Bai Kaixin, who had just called to report the situation. But this guy was always more of a hindrance than help! It was only due to his nepotism with the commissioner that no one could touch him. Seeing he was eager to make a show of success, she figured he was going to cause them some trouble. She could only compose herself and pretend they didn’t know each other, still sitting in her original position, while Lin Mu sat with Bai Kaixin. "Where are you from, brother?" Bai Kaixin leaned close to Lin Mu. "Xinjiang, Hotan." Bai Kaixin couldn’t help but shudder internally, as that was the hub of terrorist activity! Just the other day, those people stormed the police station and killed more than a dozen officers. Looking at this fellow now—slightly dark skin, semi-worn jeans, camouflage T-shirt, face full of stubble—it matched the description of the Xinjiang person provided by the reconnaissance team. No mistake, it’s him. Thinking this, Bai Kaixin grabbed Lin Mu’s left hand, pulled out handcuffs from his waistband, and snapped them onto his wrist. To be honest, Bai Kaixin’s maneuver was quite impressive, as it took him less than three seconds to move from the grab, to the handcuff, to restraining the suspect. But he had no idea that as a genius from the Hunter Training Base, Lin Mu’s reaction time was to be measured in milliseconds! Although Bai’s flashy move yielded results, Lin Mu had a thousand ways to escape, yet he remained motionless. Because the threat the handcuffs posed to him was as negligible as a child’s paper toy! But the situation wasn’t that simple. From the dream, to the busty beauty’s maneuvering, to the current handcuff incident, it all seemed like a pre-arranged trap. He wanted to know what the opposing party’s intention was. So he didn’t resist, feigned surprise, and let Bai Kaixin cuff him to the train seat. After all, this thing posed no threat. If he wanted to leave, even ten sets of handcuffs wouldn’t hold him. "Captain Qi, I’ve always told you that catching thieves is a man’s job, women just can’t do it. See what happened now? With me, Bai Kaixin, on the scene, criminals are dealt with in no time!" This guy always bragged without needing a draft, and now that he believed he had accomplished something by capturing Lin Mu, he was full of himself. His eyes drifted over Qi Manlin’s open blouse, gazing at the unique scenery inside. Qi Manlin felt as if she had swallowed a fly, gave Bai Kaixin a disgusted look. Honestly, she was somewhat apprehensive about this operation since she devised the entire plan after receiving intelligence about a Xinjiang criminal group arriving in Wancheng, targeting the CEO of Su’s Great Enterprise Group—her friend Sophie. In order to catch the criminals, Sophie’s secretary and sister, Xiaowan, bravely volunteered to cooperate with the police, leading to the "Backpack Operation" as it was called, since the criminals’ firearms and ammunition were reportedly packed in a military green backpack. According to the intel, this group of Xinjiang assassins had been responsible for numerous violent incidents, their tactics cruel, involving murder, arson, even burning the national flag—not something Bai Kaixin could ordinarily handle! Yet surprisingly, Bai Kaixin seemed to resolve this almost effortlessly, leaving Qi Manlin both anxious and baffled. Because she sensed that Lin Mu wasn’t just some ordinary ruffian, he exuded a formidable aura that suggested he had survived through a bloody storm. She had felt this kind of vibe only once before, from an elderly general who had distinguished service during the war, so she didn’t believe Lin Mu could be easily subdued. However, it was fortunate that Lin Mu was indeed captured, allowing Qi Manlin to relax a bit, but she felt the need to rebuke the overconfident Deputy Captain Bai: "Bai Kaixin, you got lucky this time, but as a subordinate, you must follow orders and cooperate in any action. Acting on your own accord, thinking you know best is not helpful and will one day cost you dearly. Remember, other Xinjiang thugs won’t be as lousy, weak, or incompetent as him!" Bai Kaixin’s face was ridden with the bold arrogance of a victor, his boasting echoing like thunder, "Even if they’re a hundred times more formidable than him, I, Bai Kaixin, would still capture them effortlessly..." But upon hearing Qi Manlin’s words, Lin Mu’s face turned green. Damn, the Wolf Fang Special Forces King, undefeatable on the North African Plain, sniper king among mercenaries, and combat genius from the Hunter Training Base, was now being labeled by this chick as the lamest, weakest, and most incompetent assassin. Damn it... Given the pandemonium reached this stage, even a fool could see what’s going on. Lin Mu, in a state of disbelief, realized he had taken the blame for real Xinjiang thugs, becoming an unintentional scapegoat. But Lin Mu wasn’t guilty, so he wasn’t in a hurry to fight back. The truth would eventually surface, and he was curious to see how these foolish cops would explain themselves! The surrounding passengers cast curious glances, which Bai Kaixin mistook for awe and admiration. He then called out to a few plainclothes officers nearby, "You guys, come over here, the assassin has been captured by me, and everything’s fine now!" Usually, you all think I’m an idiot, but today I’ve turned the table and become a godly detective! There’s nothing like showing off in front of your subordinates while your superior is around—catching a big fish might even mean a promotion next month, possibly taking Captain Qi Manlin’s position, and if one day I could climb on top of her, dictating orders every day, man, wouldn’t that be the life! Since the suspect was caught, Qi Manlin had no more to say and pointed to Lin Mu’s worn-out backpack, instructing her officers, "Open it, routine check!" "Yes!"

Detective Li Wei rummaged through the backpack but found no firearms, so he closed it and stood aside. "How could there be nothing?" Qi Manlin couldn’t believe her judgment, "This guy must have hidden it, search!"
